Macs

The Sunday before last I got a work computer; specifically I got a Macbook Air. I got this model because I figured I would want something small and light. Don’t get me wrong, this was a great computer, but I hadn’t counted on how much I would like working on a Mac. After all, I hate Apple, so I would have to hate the Mac.. Right?

Well, I was wrong. And I loved it. So yesterday morning I went early to the Apple store and upgraded to a MacBook pro 15″. This new system is a bit of a huge monstrosity, but it is much faster and has a hard drive big enough to last some time.

Actually I’m writing this on my IBM T42p, which feels just as fast and is 4 years old. Go figure.

    Wait, so even if you like the UI, the 4 year-old laptop is just as fast.. so would you consider getting a Mac if you had to pay for it on your own dime?

    I wouldn’t get a mac for myself unless I had a lot of money to burn.
